I lived in Las Vegas NV for 15 yrs. Talk about a place where people have misconceptions! I wish I had a nickle for every time someone said to me "Wow, I didn't realize people really lived here!" No, the casinos are run by people who are bussed in from CA, AZ & Utah and the rest of the city is run by robots! LOL Everyone thinks of Las Vegas as only being The Strip. Ironically, The Strip is not even in the city limits. I moved from Michigan to Texas in 1977 and couldn't get over the misconceptions the Texans had about people from the northern states too so it is really all over. I have found this to be the most prevalent among people who never travel more than 90 miles from their birth place in their entire life.
